Not posted on the site for a while but read everyday & some of the stuff being said is ridiculous the calls for NL to be sacked is downright stupid he might not have had the challenge of rangers but that's not his fault. We are ment to be the best fans in the world according to a lot of pros but when we turn our back on a resonably successful manager it honestly makes me wonder. We've not been playing the most attractive style of late but I'd say we aren't a bad team to watch on our day. If anyone deserves blame its the board, there has been a lot of money invested this season and we don't seem to be reeping the rewards as yet puuki I think will turn good he has a record of taking time to setle in balde I think is a waste I'd cut my losses now griffiths will score goals no doubt but I'd like to see a bigger callibre of striker up their with him. Anyway I'm straying off the point NL should be given till at least janruary next year to see if he can get us playing the celtic way again!

Hail hail

Are you for real? Goodbye NL sooner the better

So DN30 Is the op not entitled to his opinion, the same as you are? you come away with the statement goodbye NL the sooner the better, show the manager some respect at least, if you don't want him that's fair enough, you are entitled to your opinion but less of the sooner the better patter, I think the same as the op, we might not be happy about the season has been but we are not calling for the manager's head.

@tambhoy don't think there was anything wrong with what I posted. Expressing my shock in a respectful manner. Am cutting NL absolutely no slack at all, just as I have done from day one.

Respect? Did NL show players respect when results were not going our way stating "im going to start naming and shaming"? Arrogantly never thought it was anything to do with poor tactics and managerial skills.

No 2 ways about it DN30 you are a disgrace to the celtic family. What is it you want? Perfect football? Did you see the Arsenal v Man utd game tonght? 2 o the best teams in Europe spend fortunes on players and could hardly muster a chance the whole game.What you expect from a team in our league? trebles? Only 2 managers in our history has done this that proves it is very difficult. Success in Europe? Getting to CL is success for us.No manager in our history has ever had to put up with what NL has to put up with, and still he brings success and fortunes to our club.Signings? He is following our club policy of buying young and selling on just like Ajax. Not every signing will be a success but its not his policy and will follow clubs lead on this.It can only help develop our great club until fortunes come in from tv revenue.

@3 DN30 Think you are being disrespectful to a man who came to our aid in the wake of Tony Mowbrey, you say you are cutting him no slack as you have done from day one, so no matter what he done you would still disrespect him, so he get's us to the last 16 of champion's league and you still think he is crap, jog on you obviously are a very hard person to please, poor tactic's and management skill's, we are running away with this league, have not conceded a goal in 11 league game's, so who's tactic's are we using? as I have said on here many time's this is not the worst Celtic team or manager I have seen in my time supporting Celtic.If you are going to say ah but there's no Rangers, that's not Neil's fault, you can only play what's in front of you.At the end of the day, it's like watching the telly if you don't like what's on don't watch it.

@rayman disgrace to the celtic family?? Cause I stand up and voice my concerns at poor management of club? don't be ridiculous! We don't have that sort of money what Manchester United and arsenal have! doesn't cost a penny to drop players who are not in form! Your probably one of these clowns who will say stokes is having a great season! GOODBYE LENNON SOONER THE BETTER

@tambhoy aid of mowbray? Mowbray was on a par with lennon. Take your heads out the clouds son and taste reality. Hard to please? Yes your right, il sit back and see an incompetent manager squander money on poor signings your a joke

I guess this is what the Banter page is about. Freedom to air and read opinions and chat about something we are all passionate about. You like or dislike NL, that's your opinion and I respect it. I wonder how many NL detractors, who raved about the team and the way we played in several CL games are now calling for his head. Let's not forget that we also, because of the poor league we are in, had to play qualifying rounds just to get to the CL group stages. That was not all luck. We also have to be realistic. 1967 was our pinacle and we should always aim for that, but, letes remember our limitations in the ability to attract decent players, retain them and in real terms move them on to survive. I think NL has done a great job under very trying circumstances and there are certain restrictions on what a manager can and cannot air with the fans. Everything which is said by managers, directors etc. has a roll-on effect on the stocks and shares. Just look across the city to see what happens when motormouth rattles his jaw. I'm for NL but the non-playing executives and directors need to see that, although the price was right, you cannot dismantle a fairly successful team (with the potential to do even better) and expect the re-build to happen overnight. Hail Hail

Dn30, you are too critical of Neil.you make him out to be anything other than a manager, he has done us good, not great, but good.He is working well, with the money he is given and the players he has had to sell.The board should back him financially, then maybe you could learn to respect him or the rest of us could decide that he is not the man for us.


9.) 13 Feb 2014
But is he really doing good for the money Celtic have and players at our disposal compared to everyone else in Scotland, including the Zombies? 2 (1x league and 1x cup) out 7 in his time before the demise of the Deady Bears then 3 (soon to be 2x leagues and 1x cup) out 6 since their demise? It makes for sceptical reading, in my opinion obviously.

DN30 everything you say is negative. Do you got to games? if you do I wudnt want to sit next to you. I thought we were here to support our team.Very few here agree with you, try finding a solution to what you say then people might take you seriously.As for stokes? no not havin a great season for me he is missin hooper.


11.) 13 Feb 2014
@brisbanegreg I disagree mate. i'm not being too critical. He is not a good manager and this is evident on his tactics and majority of transfers. He should never have got the job and Lawell has a lot to answer for.

@rayman yes I do go to games. Been a season ticket holder for 14 years. Feelings mutual, you are living in a wee fantasyland. Explain what exactly I am saying about the club is negative? Cause if you read my posts, the only negative thing I have been saying is Neil Lennon as manager
